Preview
Blackburn Rovers and Newcastle United face at Ewood Park, in a match for the 25th round of the Championship. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 26‑11‑2016, Blackburn Rovers got an away win by (0‑1). Oddly enough, the head‑to‑head record favours Blackburn Rovers: in the last 1 match they won 1. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Blackburn

The home team is currently in the 22th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 5 wins, 6 draws and 13 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Barnsley, by (2‑0). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Huddersfield Town, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 4 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 25 conceded. In the last 10 home league matches Blackburn Rovers has a record of 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 12 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 6 of the last 24 matches for the Championship, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 2 of those 6 matches and have held on to the lead in 2. They have conceded the first goal in 17 of their 24 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 3.

Blackburn heads into this match after a 1-1 draw away from home, against Huddersfield. They usually play in a 4-4-2 formation, prioritising a more paused play style, with attacks through the middle of the pitch. Their 2 wingers will be Conway and Feeney, with Graham and Gallagher being their forwards. They should also have Evans and Akpan in the middle of the field.

Confirmed Lineup: Jason Steele, Ryan Nyambe, Derrick Williams, Gordon Greer, Charlie Mulgrew, Jason Lowe, Liam Feeney, Hope Akpan, Craig Conway, Marvin Emnes, Danny Graham.

In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Sheffield Wednesday, by (0‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Nottingham Forest, by (3‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 28 goals scored and 6 conceded; against 11 wins and 4 losses at their stadium, with 36 goals scored and 13 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Newcastle United has a record of 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so they have won 25 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (7 out of 12 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 8 of the last 12 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first.
